Prospects for observing and localizing gravitational-wave transients with Advanced LIGO, Advanced Virgo and KAGRA

open access: yesLiving Reviews in Relativity, 2018
We present possible observing scenarios for the Advanced LIGO, Advanced Virgo and KAGRA gravitational-wave detectors over the next decade, with the intention of providing information to the astronomy community to facilitate planning for multi-messenger ...

Gravitational-wave astronomy

open access: yesResonance, 2011
We present a broad overview of the emerging field of gravitational-wave astronomy. Although gravitational waves have not been directly detected yet, the worldwide scientific community is engaged in an exciting search for these elusive waves.

Gravitational wave astronomy [PDF]

open access: yesClassical and Quantum Gravity, 1999
The first decade of the new millennium should see the first direct detections of gravitational waves. This will be a milestone or fundamental physics and it will open the new observational science of gravitational wave astronomy.

A high load torsion pendulum of trifilar suspension magnetic damper for inertial sensor test [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
Space-based gravitational waves (GW) detection requires the residual noise spectral density of the inertial sensors to reach $$10^{-15}\textrm{m}\cdot \textrm{s}^{-2}\cdot \textrm{Hz}^{-1/2}$$ from 0.1 mHz to 1Hz.

Gravitational-wave astronomy

open access: yesAnnual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 1972
The significance of experimental evidence for gravitational waves is considered for astronomy. Properties, generation, and astrophysical sources of the waves are discussed. Gravitational wave receivers and antennas are described.

Design method for the structure of a gravitational wave detection telescope with low TTL noise [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
As a critical payload of the gravitational wave detection interferometry system, the tilt-to-length (TTL) noise has a significant influence on the detection accuracy of the interferometry system.

Research on Interferometric Tilt Sensor for Vibration Isolation Platform [PDF]

open access: yesSensors
Low-frequency seismic vibrations extremely limit the performance of ground simulation facilities for space-borne gravitational wave detections, which need to be substantially suppressed. Active vibration systems are thus required.
